    To the BMW guys: This does not mean I don't like BMWs, I just don't understand why you think they are the best cars in the world; that is a purely subjective matter. Some people would say a Tundra is the best, or a Ferrari, it's just a matter of interests. In the end it doesn't matter what any person says about a car, the only thing that means anything is what you yourself like. Stop trying to convert everyone to BMW, it wont work, and why would you want it to? One of the reasons I love my car is because of the rarity, would you really love your car as much if everyone on the road drove the same damn thing? Doubt it.
    I hear ya man. But nobody in their right mind would rag a guy for a ferrari

    You would be surprised, I browse Ferrarichat.com and there were a couple M3 and Porsche (not trying to single them out, but they were from a bmw site) guys on there mocking the Ferrari guys. I just don't understand it, I love all cars and have great respect for them. It's just a mystery to me why others, especially the older, wealthier crowd, can't do the same as a kid in his early 20s, I would think it would be the opposite.

    Damn, really? I can understand that though.

    I'm kinda a purist, in some ways, depenmds on the car. I definitely try to discourage people from removing S14's from E30 M3's and replacing them with S52's. Original E30 M3's are getting rarer and rarer, if you wnat somethjign fast, you can build an E30 M3 'look-alike' from a regular E30 just as cheaply. Then swap wtfever motor you want in there. Just stop hacking up all the damn E30 M3's, PLEASE!!!

    I saw an e30 m3 abandoned on the side 85S one morning going to school and I almost cried. I hope the owner got it out of there ok.

    If a e30 M3 had chrome wheels on it, then it deserved to be broken down.

    Ferrari has a very storied history. Most owners prefer a stock Ferrari as to them, that is the "pure" way to own it. Just maintain, don't touch, the factory knows best.

    That is why many guys that are into modding buy a Lambo or Porsche b/c modding a Ferrari many times is frowned upon by the "establishment".

    Lambo and Porsche owners mod like crazy and are much more open armed to those to modify.
